Category: Microscopy Protocols: Live-Cell Imaging Protocols

Manual measurement and manipulation of the cell surface requires access to the cells, usually in an open chamber. Temperature-controlled chambers or stage inserts are preferred for maintaining physiological activity during the experiment. For example, heated culture dishes with coverslip glass bottoms (Bioptechs) permit high-resolution fluorescence microscopy of living cells during force application. - [Read Chambers for Examination of Live Cells under Mechanical Stress Protocol]

Category: E Coli Protocols: E coli Protein Protocols

Protocol for the expression of cloned genes in E. coli using IPTG-inducible promoters. Protocol describes how (1) to clone cloned sequences encoding open reading frames in plasmids carrying IPTG-inducible promoters, (2) to optimize expression of target proteins in transformants carrying these recombinants, and (3) to scale-up production of foreign proteins. - [Read Expression of Cloned Genes in E. coli Using IPTG-inducible Promoters Protocol]

Category: C. elegans Protocols: C. elegans Fixing Protocols

Protocol for fixation and permeabilization of C. elegans. Protocol works for all stages except dauers (which won't open) and hypoclorite-treated eggs (which disintegrate). Luckily, hypochlorite treatment and fixation are by themselves sufficient to open eggs. - [Read Fixation and Permeabilization of C. elegans Protocol]
